Solved New CCC 10.12 drivers

[Solarstarshines]

Hi all I wanted to share some results of the new ccc driver
I installed this a moment ago and it dramaticly dropped my GPU temps by almost 20 degrees

I have to say im liking this if it makes my card run a little more cooler and effective and now i can go back to 1920/1080 on the flat again vs only getting 1680/1050 all the time with no room for adjustments

once again dual screening with correct resolution

What's new in 10.12 ?

 

[Solarstarshines]

actually just a new look and interface thats about it and it supports the 6800 series cards now

I was getting less then what i paid for because the 10.11 didnt fully support the 6870's yet

It adds nice and fast AMD video converter.

My first two attempts to install 10.12 failed. Came that it was Zonealarm causing trouble. Temporarily shut it down and finally got it installed. Just in case if anyone's (probably ZA product user) facing any issue with it.

The first time it failed on me too even gave me a BSOD but i ended up trying again then it went through almost had me worried though

Well, i didn't get any BSoD. I was kinda surprised that even after clicking 'allow' on the pop-ups thrown by ZA during driver installation, it interrupted the driver install process.

Btw, is that desktop yours?? I don't think so.

I too am on 10.12 with my 6870.

Does anybody know what sort of numbers are safe to go up to on Overdrive? Attached are my current values as standard.

Nice!

Just upgraded from a HD 5770 to a GTX 460, I'm still going to try the 10.12's with my onboard HD 4250.

the onboard is something you should leave alone if you have a installed a gtx460 installing the ati drivers for the intergrated graphics might conflict you I might be wrong depending if your particular chipset ask for the update if not i would leave it alone you will for sure BSOD your unit

I didn't mean that the desktop is not yours.. I just ask'd because i was kinda shocked to see Adobe Reader 9 on your desktop when v10 is already out even on knowing how much vulnerable it is and liked by cyber-crooks..

I actually updated to 10 already and cyber crooks im not worried about all my real info is in my wallet and my brain cyber thieves can do nothing to me i dont do banking or buying online I do order a occassional pizza but when delivered i give the man cash lol thanks for the concern though why it shows the old icon after it has been updated is a mystery to me but thank you again for the concern and i appologoze for sounding brash

 

[Solarstarshines]

well ends up i only updated active x 10 for the flash player i have now installed the adobe 10 Looks like your going to be repped for the the good eyes lol EzioAuditore

I guess sometimes other eyes is what we need to see our pigheadedness

 

[EzioAuditore]

That icon mystery your talking about may happen if you installed v10 on top of previous version..
And i have had the same mentality that i don't do online banking, transactions or any such thing, so i don't need to worry about cyber criminals, but tighten my security a bit as i don't wanna my pc to be a part of botnet, which in turn creates problem for other users.
Ps: Don't take it upon yourself. I'm just talking about the widespread mentality.
Edit: Oh so you fixed that icon thing. Very well.

 

[cybercore]

Do not forget about Driver Sweeper before installing a new Catalyst version. Mind that this preview release is not WHQL, and in the process of installation you have to click "Install this driver anyway". For best installation results temporarily disable your AV and Firewall.

 

[EzioAuditore]

Indeed. I had to disable my firewall to install it.

If you haven't already - wait for the hotfixes.

Stock 10.12's are pretty bad drivers overall for many different users.


For 5xxx users - Stick with 10.10e as the 'officals' break MLAA for that series of cards. Plus they are still newer '3D' drivers than these things.


This is not a magic repeat of the 9.12 awesomeness from a year ago. This is an antithesis release by comparison.

In other words - they suck.
